> GNOME 3.8 made hard dependencies on logind because it was default in Fedora Looks like we're still in disagreement about this. As far as I can tell, there was never a 'hard' dependency of GNOME 3.8 on logind; logind was an optional dependency[0]. > beyond functionality that can be summarised as "SysV initd plus dependencies" I would attribute that to the lack of similar "service manager" functionality in other "boot managers". That comes down to the hesitancy of these "boot managers" to embrace the role of "service managers". There's tons of functionality that the systemd project (not necessarily the pid0 binary) introduced to make services run consistently and reliably. They paved the way in that regard and we're still waiting for contenders to catch up. [0] https://mail.gnome.org/archives/desktop-devel-list/2013-Marc... |
